Samsung's GT-i9300 is probably not the Galaxy S III, as revealed by its low-res screen

[![][1] ][2]

Straight from the _Dana Scully_ school of debunking, _Android Community_ has poured cold water on the notion that the [GT-i9300][3] is the quasi-mythical [Galaxy S III][4]. Having happened upon the user agent profile of the device bearing that codename, the stats reveal a lackluster 1024 x 600 resolution display that's easily beaten by the Galaxies Nexus and Note. We'll be keeping our eyes peeled at [Mobile World Congress][5] and hope that Samsung isn't planning to ruin the pedigree of the handsets that have previously born that code: the i9200 was the [Galaxy S II][6] and the i9250 was the [Galaxy Nexus][7], after all.
